Cancer detection in early stage using a powerful and noninvasive tool is of high global interest. In this experiment, a small-molecular-weight glucose based derivative of Gd3+-1-(4-isothiocyanatobenzyl) diethylene tri amine penta acetic acid (Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG) as a novel potential MR imaging contrast agents was synthesized. Gd3+-p-SCN-Bn‐DTPA‐DG was synthesized with reacting of Glucosamine...

The excellent performance of deep neural networks mainly relies on the attributes dataset, such as size, diversity, completeness. However, it is usually difficult to obtain a high-qualified training dataset for some scenarios. Inspired by human visual cognition process with few sample learning, and strong robustness, we believe experience knowledge more powerful than large-scale data. To combin...

Fetal grafts of the anterior hypothalamus (SCN/AH) containing the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) restore circadian rhythms to SCN-lesioned host hamsters and rats following implantation into the third ventricle. Previous studies suggest that intraventricular SCN/AH grafts are variable in their attachment sites, the extent of their outgrowth, and the precise targets innervated in the host brain. H...

The suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) in mammals functions as the biological clock controlling circadian rhythms, but the synaptic circuitry of the SCN is largely unexplored. Most SCN neurons use the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and anatomic studies indicate many GABAergic synapses and local axon collaterals; however, physiological evidence for synaptic communication among SCN n...

The kinetics of substitution of [Ti(ur)6]3+ by H2O and SCN¯ ion in ethanol solution have been measured spectrophotometrically by stopped-flow method. Water is a good nucleophile toward Ti(III) substrates. Even the solvent ethanol appears to be a poor ligand when compared to water. Substitution, in general follows two parallel pathways: "direct" (second order...

BACKGROUND Circadian rhythms in mammalian behavior, physiology, and biochemistry are controlled by the central clock of the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN). The clock is synchronized to environmental light-dark cycles via the retino-hypothalamic tract, which terminates predominantly in the ventral SCN of the rat. In order to understand synchronization of the clock to the external light-dark cycle...

The master circadian pacemaker in mammals is located in the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) which regulate physiology and behaviour, as well as coordinating peripheral clocks throughout the body. Investigating the function of the SCN has often focused on the identification of rhythmically expressed genes. However, not all genes critical for SCN function are rhythmically expressed. An alternative s...

The mammalian central circadian pacemaker (the suprachiasmatic nucleus, SCN) contains thousands of neurons that are coupled through a complex network of interactions. In addition to the established role of the SCN in generating rhythms of ~24 hours in many physiological functions, the SCN was recently shown to be necessary for normal self-similar/fractal organization of motor activity and heart...

The soybean cyst nematode (SCN; Heterodera glycines Ichinohe) is a major soybean-yield-limiting soil-borne pathogen, especially in the Midwestern US. Weed management recommended for SCN integrated management, since some weed species have been reported to be hosts SCN. increase occurrence of resistance herbicides complicates and may further direct ecological–evolutionary (eco–evo) feedbacks plan...
